To promote the launch of The Great Food Truck Race, Food Network has commissioned the World’s Most Expensive Kebab.

Created by chef Andy Bates, the ‘King of Kebabs’ includes champagne-infused mint and cucumber yogurt, barrel-aged ewe’s milk feta cheese, and coeur de boeuf. And of course, no over-the-top foodstuff would be complete without the superfluous edible gold leaf.

The asking price for this new street-food-gone-fancy is $1,225. In other news, the US is still broke.
